UNH PaperCut Print: Printing from a Personal Device - Mobility Print

Summary

This article has instructions to set up and use PaperCut's Mobility Print on your personal devices or computers. After you set up Mobility Print on a device, then you can print to PaperCut printers from that device. Set up Mobility Print on each personal device from which you want to print.

Mobility Print supports the following operating systems:

  • Windows
  • MacOS
  • Apple iOS
  • Android
  • ChromeOS

Mobility Print is also an alternative for institutionally managed MacOS computers where you log into the computer with an account name (like John Doe) that does not match your USNH username (like jbd2519). Note that installing Mobility Print requires administrative access which may require assistance from a Client Services technician on institutionally managed devices.

 

How-To

Task: Set up the Follow-Me Printers using PaperCut's Mobility Print on your personal device or computer.

Before you begin

  • If you are on-campus, make sure you are connected to Eduroam (wireless) or Ethernet (wired).
  • If you are off-campus, make sure you are connected to the VPN.

Instructions

Step 1 - Download the Mobility Print client from https://papercut.unh.edu:9164/setup 

The download page attempts to detect your operating system (box 1 in image below). If the operating system is correct, choose the Download button (box 2).

If your operating system (OS) is not detected correctly, click on the correct OS for your device from the links at the bottom of the download screen (box 3).

Step 2 - Follow the on-screen installation instructions provided for your operating system.

Step 3 - When the installation is complete, the Follow-Me printers UNH_BW_EMPLOYEE and UNH_COLOR_EMPLOYEE will be available on your device.

Step 4 - You can now print to one of the Follow-Me printers as you normally would print on your device. See detailed instructions for how to print from MacOS or from Windows.

Important: Each time you print, your device will ask you for a username and password. Type your USNH username ONLY, NOT username@usnh.edu (e.g. jbd2519, NOT jbd2519@usnh.edu) and USNH password. Your operating system may have the option to save this information after the first time, to make it easier to print.

Step 5 - After you send your document to one of the Follow-Me printers, you can either go to a PaperCut printer and tap to release your print job, or release your print job through a web browser.

 

Outcome

You have set up the Follow-Me Printers using PaperCut's Mobility Print on your personal device or computer. You are able to print to PaperCut printers on campus.
